From LFG To UD: A Combined Approach
This paper reports on a systematic approach for deriving Universal Dependencies from LFG structures.
Multilingual Dependency Parsing for Low-Resource African Languages: Case Studies on Bambara, Wolof, and Yoruba
The methodology consists in leveraging multilingual BERT self-attention model pretrained on large datasets to develop a multilingual multi-task model that can predict Universal Dependencies annotations for three African low-resource languages.
Low-resource Neural Machine Translation: Benchmarking State-of-the-art Transformer for Wolof<->French
For such models, using backtranslation proves to be slightly beneficial in low-resource Wolof to high-resource French language translation for the transformer-based models.
MasakhaPOS: Part-of-Speech Tagging for Typologically Diverse African Languages
In this paper, we present MasakhaPOS, the largest part-of-speech (POS) dataset for 20 typologically diverse African languages.
MasakhaNER 2.0: Africa-centric Transfer Learning for Named Entity Recognition
African languages are spoken by over a billion people, but are underrepresented in NLP research and development.
SENCORPUS: A French-Wolof Parallel Corpus
In this paper, we report efforts towards the acquisition and construction of a bilingual parallel corpus between French and Wolof, a Niger-Congo language belonging to the Northern branch of the Atlantic group.
Implementation and Evaluation of an LFG-based Parser for Wolof
This paper reports on a parsing system for Wolof based on the LFG formalism.
Pruning the Search Space of the Wolof LFG Grammar Using a Probabilistic and a Constraint Grammar Parser
The CG parser is used in the pre-processing phase to reduce morphological and lexical ambiguity.
A Morphological Analyzer For Wolof Using Finite-State Techniques
This paper reports on the design and implementation of a morphological analyzer for Wolof.
